ok thinking of turbo'ing my 240z


Recommended Posts

Ok before you tell me to search I have!!

 

but have a few questions. but before that lemme tell you what I have.

1972 240z with l28e block, n42 head, 72 su carbs, 6-1 msa header, nissan 5speed (not sure which tho)

 

Now here comes my question. I've checked the classifieds but nothing local or really anything of what I need. Anything wrong with using the head/block I have with a turbo ? if so what should I get ?

 

I know I need ecu, all wireing for injectors, intake, turbo header, turbo & oil lines, possible 280zxt distributer ?

 

anything else and do you know where I can get it locally and how much do you think that stock stuff will cost me ?

hit the junkyards, I bought a complete runing when it hit 83 zxt for $350, some have gotten theirs for less and some for more, your current block is either an early L28 with dishtop pistons which is ok to use for the turbo, or it is a flat top that I don't think you can use (at least not with that head) that head is very low volume and with a flat top block yields over 10 to 1 comp ratio, not turbo friendly at all, your better off if you can find a parts car and pull everything you need including the motor
